Fashion shows are not one-size-fits-all. Some have art-centric undertones - with edgy fashionistas and hipsters looking avidly indifferent to the cool and sometimes outrageous fashion. Other shows are part society, part ballgown fashion bonanza. Still other shows are girlfriend gab fests with a strong charitable tie-in.
